Meeting John Caven for the first time is like knowing John for a lifetime. You immediately feel comfortable, engaged, and acknowledged, and I am happy to say this continues to get better as the years progress. John first made contact with me when he had members from Loch Lomond coming to Las Vegas. I recall how important it was to him that they were well taken care of. That first interaction fostered a friendship that has spanned more than fifteen years. Today, John and I connect with our shared love of family, golf, dad-humour, and education. We share challenges, articles, books, and experiences with one another, which has benefitted me greatly. He is one of the few professionals in the golf business that looks outside our industry for ideas and solutions for his business. As chance would have it, John is now leading Oakdale G&CC, a club that I once worked at in the summers while I was home from university. It is a wonderful membership with very high expectations, and I am happy to report that all signs point to him exceeding them. Which is no surprise. John is a very perceptive gentleman who has great insights into what really makes a club exceptional. His well-rounded business acumen has him seemingly an expert in everything from F&B and P&L's, to marketing and agronomy; though his humility doesn't make it immediately obvious. I am a card-carrying member of the John Caven fan club. He is always a gentleman, eager to learn, and patient with those who need guidance. His leadership style is focused on making the people around him better, and he himself shows great discipline and grit to be his best version of himself for his friends, family, and those he serves every day.

I worked with John on the Scottish Open Golf Championship when it was played at Loch Lomond Golf Club. John is a top class professional, extremely proficient and a great colleague who is a pleasure to work with. I have no hesitation in recommending John to any organisation, they will only benefit from their association with him.
